"We brought Scott in to speak to our Managing Partner Roundtable about how to improve the odds when securing a successful placement. Scott's sense of humor, dynamic speaking style, and compelling concepts won over even the most skeptical lawyers in the audience. I highly recommend Scott as a speaker, and generally as a "person to know." He has been very generous with introductions and suggestions since the day I met him."  David Ackert, Ackert, Inc. 

" As part of the LA Steering Committee of LMA, I was so pleased Scott presented a fun and informative virtual program to our senior marketers on lateral hiring, attracting hires with coveted client relationships, and caring for those clients once the hire is onboard. We enjoyed his boots-on-the-ground stories and his wisdom regarding the entire lateral hiring process. We hope Scott will come back (in person next time) to continue the conversation!
